About Me


♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

♥ PASSIONATE
♥ DRIVEN
♥ LOYAL TO MY LOVED ONES

My philosophy is that life is too short to be: (1.) bored (2.) unhappy or (3.) unsatisfied. As a passionate person I've always got to be excited about SOMETHING.

It is amazing but I swear, as we reach our adult years, time literally zips by (mostly because it is taken up working). With this in mind, I choose the people I spend this scarce resource with, wisely. I have no room (or patience) in my life for substance-less relationships. And by substance-less I do not mean void of fun, but void of intended negativity and superficiality as life is too short!
I am, however, extremely grateful for the bounty of goodness and love that surrounds me. I wish this for everyone, because I believe this is what life is all about. God bless!

Gerald: My husband composes half of who I am. Ours is a uniquely fun, happy, engaging, & committed relationship. I think the reason for this is that we thoroughly enjoy each others company and value what the other thinks & feels about things. He definitely tops my list of many blessings.
Fam: My old & new family are my constant source of love, appreciation, support, & inspiration (old == my blood, new == Gerald's family). They make up a huge chunk of my motivational-appetite to reach for the very brightest of futures.
Peeps: Those in my inner-circle accept, understand, and love me best. Because of this my aim in life is to give them the world as far as my resources are concerned (time, friendship, motivational cheerleading, etc.)
Work: What I do entails a lot thinking, writing and speaking and since these are among my favorite things to do, Im experiencing a new-found contentment and satisfaction that for once, is work-related.
Thats me in a very long-winded nutshell.

My Interests



Reading, writing, analyzing, running for fun, ball room/dancing in general, myspacing, wedding planning, planning in general, watching the adventures of cpt. jean-luc picard & cpt. katherine janeway, watching good football games, going out on dates w/ my hubby-2-be-gee, and of course spending that oh so important qt w/ the fam, & folks. (And pretty much anything else I find engaging & stimulating.)

I'd like to meet:



I'm more than content with the wonderful people that surround me; however, I'm always down to reconnect with old school folks and to meet new, cool, down-to-earth, respectful, & stimulating new peeps.

More specifically, I would like to meet other café-luvin-enthusiasts particularly those of my FELLOW ESPRESSO types: You, MILLICENT, are an "ESPRESSO"

At your best, you are: straight shooting, ambitious, & energetic

At your worst, you are: anxious, high strung, & impatient

You drink coffee when: anytime you're not sleeping

Your caffeine addiction level: high

If I'm ever on AIM its only on the weekends. My screen name is emdee79 : )

Music:



Anything with a good beat. I especially like songs that tell a good story. Hiphop & R&B, high energy & dance, smooth jazz, light classical. New faves: Shakira, Jack Johnson & The Killers. Old faves: India Arie, No Doubt, & Prince.

Movies:



A League Of Their Own, Remembering the Titans, Grease, Twin Towers, My Big Fat Greek Wedding, What Women Want, A Beautiful Mind

Television:



I am not a big fan of tv because this is a big potential time waster for me. What I do end up watching, when I do, is a butt-load of junk (i.e.) Laguna Beach (go LC!), MTV, VHI, and some reality shows.

Books:



Elements of Style, En el tiempo de las mariposas, Tuesdays with Morrie, The Client, Hamlet (I once loved this play so much that I used to have Hamlet's soliloquy memorized.)

Heroes:



Jesus. Papa. Mama.
